LASIK LASIK uses a computer-controlled laser to permanently change the shape of the cornea, to reduce a person's dependency on glasses or contact lenses in the distance. A specific type of "cool" laser, generates its power from light in the ultraviolet range. It cannot be visualized by the human eye. Because the laser does not generate any heat, there is no tissue damage or pain as a result of the laser light. As the treatment with the laser proceeds, microscopic layers of tissue, approximately 1/10th the width of a human hair are removed. The laser is programmed to remove precisely the amount of tissue needed to achieve the desired result. A complete eye exam will confirm whether a patient is nearsighted, farsighted and/or have astigmatism. There must be no untreated ocular health problems, such as significant cataracts or untreated glaucoma. Additional measurements are needed, such as the thickness of the cornea and a corneal surface mapping, which will be done in the pre-operative evaluation at Dhaka Eye Care Hospital. This thorough diagnostic examination is the first step to creating a positive outcome for patients best possible visual result. Our renowned LASIK Surgeon Dr. Harun Ur Rahid, determines whether or not a patient is qualified for LASIK surgery and if so, he will recommend the procedure best suited for the patient. The lower age limit for LASIK is 21 years old and there is no upper age limit.
